Chapter 157: Scars

In the dead of night, the moonlight was as clear as water, and occasionally a gust of wind blew through the trees, making a 'rustling' sound, and the shadows of the trees were refracted on the window paper, swaying slightly.

Li Zifeng sat in front of the bookcase, looking at the official document, his heart was mixed, and he sighed again and again, the day he didn't want to face was coming after all. In the past few years, he has been avoiding everything about Hongyuan Villa, but no matter how he hides or escapes, Ouyang Ze will always force him to have no way out.

Ouyang Ze asked him to go to the study tomorrow, and specially left this official document, how could he not understand the intention of Ouyang Ze's move. It's just that he wants to make his stand again, and he even wants to let him lead people down the mountain now and destroy Hongyuan Villa. The candle flame scorched the wick of the candle and burst the spark slightly, the flame struggled to maintain the light, but his eyes were sore, Li Zifeng leaned lazily on the back of the chair, rubbing his frowning brow.

At this moment, a dark shadow shook in front of him, and a breeze caused the flames to shake. Li Zifeng was not surprised, he was even so tired that he didn't even bother to lift his eyelids, and sighed lightly, "Coming?"

The person who came was Shadow Wei Piaoyun, who had been sent out by Li Zifeng to watch He Yi's every move before, and this time he came late at night, presumably there was a result. Piaoyun saw that Li Zifeng's eyes had been closed, his face was very bad, and his brows were slightly furrowed, "Childe, what's uncomfortable?"

"It's fine, maybe I'm cold. Li Zifeng sat up straight, feeling very emotional, the shadow guard, who had always been emotionless, actually said some words of concern, his eyes were slightly sour, "I have been following for two days, but there is a result?"

"He Gongzi was controlled by a man in a black cloak, and upon investigation, the black cloak was used as a threat to his sister and elderly mother. The black cloak is very good, and his subordinates can't track it, so he secretly checked the disciple roster, and got a general understanding of his hometown, and now he has sent out people to secretly investigate thoroughly, and there will be results in two days. ”

Li Zifeng nodded, and Piaoyun continued, "When that black cloak met with He Gongzi last time, he forcibly poured something into He Gongzi, and his subordinates guessed that it looked like poison. ”

"Poison?" Li Zifeng muttered in a low voice, always feeling as if he was missing something.

The room fell silent, only the candle flame 'crackled', and Piaoyun called tentatively, "Childe?"

Li Zifeng came back to his senses, "Oh, it's okay, you continue to follow and find a way to find out the poison in him." Go to Luhua Pavilion first, secretly find Uncle Lu to find an antidote, and find a way to let him take it, don't alarm him. ”

"The subordinates understand. Piaoyun led the order to retreat, and the figure behind the screen disappeared in an instant.

Almonds, Poison, White Bones, Falling Sand, Control, He Yi, Menace...... Li Zifeng picked up his pen and wrote down these unrelated words, feeling that there seemed to be a line stringing these unrelated things together, what was it? Li Zifeng was dizzy. I want to close my eyes and take a break, but I always feel uneasy.

So, he just kept his eyes open and watched as the candle flame burned out, and a little light passed through the crack in the window, and through the window paper, there was a faint sound of water carrying a wooden barrel outside.

Li Zifeng sighed silently, after washing up briefly, he changed into neat clothes, picked up the official document specially sent by Ouyang Ze on the bookcase, and walked out of the door.

Gusts of cold wind blew on the face, like a knife scraping, the temperature in the mountains plummeted, the sky was gray-blue, gloomy and seemed to be frozen, the air was foggy, and it was completely impossible to see the sunshine of last night.

Before Ouyang Ze got up, Li Zifeng put away the official documents, then fetched water in the backyard, picked up a clean rag, and went to Ouyang Ze's study to clean up......

Reva Court

Lu Shiqing got up, and was startled by the sudden black shadow, and was stunned for a long time before he realized that this black shadow should be the shadow guard Piaoyun next to Li Zifeng, knowing that the shadow guard didn't like to talk, and he was a little indifferent, but he still couldn't help but quip, "Come and get the antidote? Why don't your sons come? I still have something to look for him!"

Piaoyun sighed in a low voice and was silent, Lu Shiqing shook his head helplessly, "I really don't like to talk." With that, he turned around and went to the medicine pavilion to get the antidote and handed it to Piaoyun, deliberately reminding, "It is colorless and odorless, and it can enter the body through breathing, and it can almost be undetected." ”

"Thank you. It took a long time for Piaoyun to hold back two words.

Lu Shiqing smiled and didn't care, "Take it away! ”

As soon as the words landed, Piaoyun flew away without a trace, Lu Shiqing couldn't help but sigh, this shadow guard's body was even higher than himself, after the first close contact, he began to wonder if they were humans or ghosts.

The sky gradually brightened, but it was still gloomy, Shang Qingyuan's study seemed to need to be lit up, the attendants had prepared a stove early and burned, the heat was slowly burning, exuding just the right amount of heat, the whole study was much warmer than outside, but Li Zifeng still felt a little cold, and couldn't help but wrap the clothes on his body tightly.

Mo Xuan came up and served hot tea, then retreated, and only Ouyang Ze and Li Zifeng were left in the study, sitting and standing across the bookcase. Ouyang Ze looked at the official document sent back by Li Zifeng, picked up the teacup and scraped the tea foam casually, and asked, "Can you see that there is no famous hall?"

Li Zifeng lowered his head slightly, "Combined with the current situation, Hongyuan Villa is afraid that it has long been in collusion with the black and white poison, and perhaps the spread of the toxin to the sect this time is also indirectly related to them." ”

Li Zifeng's eyes were slightly cold, and he seemed to be hot when he breathed in, since Ouyang Ze wanted to get these conclusions from his mouth, it would be useless to hide any longer, it was better to satisfy him

Ouyang Ze frowned, his scrutinizing gaze locked tightly on Li Zifeng, "Do you still need any evidence?"

Li Zifeng's pupils constricted, this question was like a spell, I remember that when Ouyang Ze forced himself to destroy Hongyuan Villa that year, he refused on the grounds that there was no evidence, it was nothing more than to keep the people who had given him countless warmth, because he once firmly believed that Li Shijie was innocent, but now it seems that all this has become a joke!

"Is there nothing to say?" Ouyang Ze frowned, and gently threw the teacup in his hand on the table, and the teacup collided with the table, making a crisp sound.

There was silence in the study......

Ouyang Ze stared at Li Zifeng tightly, wanting to hear the answer he wanted to hear from his mouth, and after a long silence, Ouyang Ze sighed heavily, and said intentionally or unintentionally, "Of course, if you want to defend them, you can also say it." ”

Li Zifeng's eyes were full of despair, "The disciple has nothing to defend, it was in the past, and it is now." ”

Four years ago, he was framed for colluding with Hongyuan Villa in Lingye Palace, he had no way to justify, and now he has no way to justify the signs of Hongyuan Mountain's collusion with Lingye Palace!

Li Zifeng sighed and couldn't help but whisper, "Trust is mutual." ”

"Good trust is mutual!" Ouyang Ze frowned, the fire in his heart turned into an internal force concentrated in the palm of his hand, and with a wave of his arm, the tea cup on the table fell to the ground in response, his body was shattered, and the tea flowed wantonly......

Li Zifeng closed his eyes and felt pain......
